The Tasmanian Government has a substantial library of imagery and other remotely sensed data covering the state. Dating back to the mid 1940s for some parts of the state, the photography is a valuable resource for both government and private users. Recently acquired remotely sensed elevation data is also available to users.

Tasmanian Imagery ProgramThis program has been established to coordinate the acquisition and
distribution of remotely sensed data within Tasmania. The program also includes
the development of a sustainable strategy for the ongoing acquisition and
delivery of remotely sensed data for Tasmania and a centralised repository for
the data.

Supplying Remotely Sensed Data (RSD) to Land TasmaniaAs from the first of September 2016, Land Tasmania will be using a Multi-Use List system for procurement of remote sensing services. Businesses wishing to supply to the government through Land Tasmania will need to apply to be a member of the list of preferred suppliers.

Historic PhotographyIn 1945 the Tasmanian Government commissioned a
program of aerial photography for the entire state. The task of photographing
Tasmania has continued through to the present day with this department holding
a substantial library of the photography in both print and film form.
